Rapid Response

Sometimes an action is, by necessity, called quickly in response to current events. The Brattleboro vigil in response to the Tree of Life synagogue shooting in October 2018 is an example. WeCAN uses the Song & Solidarity Rapid Response system to send out TEXT messages notifying members in a timely manner of local actions. We are grateful to Song & Solidarity for this service.

MoveOn.org is closely following Republican President Trump and the moves towards firing Mueller. In the event Mueller is fired, MoveOn is planning a nation-wide simultaneous protest. The trick will be to get the word out fast if/when the time comes. To that end we can use the Song & Solidarity Rapid Response system to send out TXT messages.

There are three ways to get your address on the Rapid Response system list. That system uses a free service called “Remind.” It is geared to teachers and students, but it meets our needs.
